"TBHD" - Pancake Cake with Maple Cream Frosting

Fall is in the air here in the Canyon and after dealing with some technical issues with our Friday Dessert Challenges from our current cookbook "The Beekman's 1802 Heirloom Dessert Cookbook" I am pleased and excited to announce we are back on track and would like to kick off the fall festivities with "Pancake Cake with Maple Cream Frosting", page 186.

This dessert was surprisingly rich and very tasty. It is a great, quick, yummy treat that you can make using leftover pancakes. Several of the kids suggested making the traditional buttermilk pancakes and then adding fresh strawberries and cream in the layers. For others they thought bananas and Nutella would be yummy, as for me I think warms apples and caramel sauce would be good.

We added...

1/2 teaspoon of dried ginger to the pancake mix and grated some milk chocolate over the top for decorative garnish.
